Yea, seriously. Props to Konerko for his handling of the situation...but seriously, who cares about the Cubs or 2003 or Alou. We are on the brink of being World Champions. QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 09:08 AM) Cubs??? Who???

Just thought I'd share my thoughts on that one... f*** YEA!

Theres a man with a gun over there, and you just got yerself banned, cuz you forgot to beware. QUOTE(furious_george @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 11:16 AM) there's somethin' happen' here...what it is ain't exactly clear...

Macho played with the Cardinals minor league system, not the Cubs. QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 08:13 AM) You know, Macho Man was a minor leaguer for the Cubs at one time(true story). Now it makes sense why Hulk and Macho fueded so much......

Yea, sounds blown out of proportion to me, too. QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 06:01 AM) It doesn't seem as serious as the title of the thread sounds. Sore arm from not being able to get loose enough during the cold. Standard arm fare for a pitcher. I'm sure he'll be ready for Game 6, if needed.

I dislike turf/domes in Baseball and Football. They have no place for sports meant to be played outdoors, and both Football and Baseball are outdoor sports. Unless it's raining, there is no use for a dome. If your fans want to be loud, be loud, just like we were in Chicago, without the benefit of a dome to magnify it.

I want a petition to ban this idiot from all future games at US Cellular, along with a public apology to the Biggio's. Then, I want him to stand there while every single Sox fan (along with ever single Astros fan), gets to walk by, pull this jagoffs hair and slap him in the back of the head. to that guy. QUOTE(YahtzeeSox @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 07:32 AM) Send that idea to Brooks ASAP. [email protected] I believe. We need a giant online petition or something saying sorry to Craig and Patty Biggio and the Astros organization.

Here is a sign idea. "We are sorry for that jackass LOSER Mr/Mrs Biggio."

I'm not happy either. People like this are what give Sox fans in general a bad name. Just what we needed, we are in the World Series and this jackass has to go and do something like this...as if being in the series isn't enough. Now we get to hear from Cub/Astro/Every other fan in baseball how crappy our stadium is and how we are all criminals. Congratulations ass, if we end up winning the world series, this is what they'll be talking about. MotherF#$!#R, loser...I want a kick this guys ass.

Yea, it was a grinder rule #x promo. He said something along the lines of: Wearing a White Sox hat and tshirt: "Grinder rule #2, brothers...what cha' gonna do, when the White Sox run wild on you?! What cha' gonna do, Houston?!" He then tore up the White Sox shirt like he does when hes wrestling. I was laughing my ass off...it was awesome. Mr. T also did one...went like "Grinder Rule #1: Win...or I pity you fool!"

The best part about this, is the irony...while you were at bible study, God was probably gathered around a 1000 inch HDTV in heaven with all the arch-angels watching the Sox game... And as the game went on, they were like: Ok, now lets have the Astros take the lead... Ok...lets make that home run hitting guy hit a slam...let's just say the ball hit Dye or something... Yea, but as good as that is, you guys know what'd be even better...let them tie it against that fat pitcher and have the little guy hit a walk off homer... Yeah...great ending. And so it came to pass. Ok...I'm crazy.

I'm with you, I've had many dreams the past few weeks, and all were good, so far. And last night was the single greatest sports moment(s)/sporting event of my entire life. I'm 30 years old, decided I'm going to get tickets to game 2 no matter how expensive they are (and as a gift to my girlfriend for her birthday), and in retrospect, they were worth every single penny. From Konerkos slam, to Pods walk-off...it was a night that couldn't have been scripted better. I'm not one for the usual fantasys...but I swear to God, something, maybe Shoeless Joe is helping us through this. From Sox fest to this...I was there for the entire ride, from the early season up's to the late season down's...to this most amazing season of our lives. And if I'm dreaming...never wake me. -y2 QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 11:08 AM) I must've had six dreams about the White Sox in the past two weeks. Most bizarre one was last wednesday where I dreamed we were already down 3-0 to the Astros in the series and we were gonna forfeit game four. I don't think I've ever been so outraged in a dream.

Not to break up all the serious threads...but... And if you've already heard it, I apologize. What's the similarity between the World Series and a Bear wearing a condom?! No Cubs.

I'm also going to be at game 2!

I'm not kidding myself...I'd much rather be there. I've been waiting my entire life for this...and who knows when it will happen again for us. Hopefully every year...but until that happens, this may be our only shot at a World Series. I'm going. :D QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 06:39 AM) I would much rather watch a WS game on TV.

Why do you guys care what this idiot, who looks like he's had plastic surgery on his face, says?! He's completely jealous. We are in the World Series...we no longer have to pay mind to idiots like this. Objectional material removed. **THIS WAS ONLY A JOKE**

Chicago Tribune -- At 10:30 p.m. Sunday, WFLD-Ch. 32 reached a 43.3 rating when the Sox clinched (one ratings point is worth more than 34,000 homes). That's the highest peak rating for any televised event for Chicago this year, including the Super Bowl and the Academy Awards. -- Where the payoff comes in the postseason is in picking up the non-traditional viewer. The Sox's ALCS games averaged a 26.6 rating. Sunday's game did a 32.5 rating and a 46 share (the percentage of televisions tuned into the broadcast), more than 12 times higher than a regular-season broadcast on CSN. Chicago is watching.

I'll tell you why I dislike bandwagoners, now and forever. Bandwagoners didn't pay the price...they haven't paid the very high price of misery year after year like I have, like we all have. They haven't been on message boards for years, talking with fellow fans going through the motions year after year. They weren't going to games when nobody seemed to like this team because they weren't the Cubs. 1983. 1993. 1994. 2000. They don't know what that felt like...and never will. Hell, most of them don't even know what those years mean. However, on the bright side of things...they could never enjoy 2005 on the same level as I'm enjoying it, or as much as any of us are enjoying it, because they never paid the same price in loving this team as we have. Still...they don't deserve this. This is for those of us who literally lose sleep when the team loses...going over the game play by play while lying in bed, unable to get it into our heads that this is "just a game". Maybe this is more than just a game to us...and what this team accomplished this year is ours...and the bandwagoners can never take it away. -y2

I was out late...went to Puffers to celebrate. It's now 6am and I'm at work. I'm dead tired. I'm a walking zombie. And it was worth every second.

You never like plays like this unless they go your way. This one went our way. QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 13, 2005 -> 07:08 AM) I'd have to assume that AJ thought Paul was going to tag him, then when he didn't he realized what might be going on. Crazy situation but obviously we're way less upset about it than Angels fans. Imagine this place if that had happened to Buerhle/AJ in the TOP of the 9th? .....oh, the humanity.....

Look at this...if the Angels fans can accept this, then they can accept what happened last night. Bunch of whiners. Look At The Cano Play Look at that, then tell me what you think...

Fact is, on this type of call, the fist pump indicates strike, NOT out...it CANNOT indicate an out. On a play such as this, an out must be called VERBALLY, which it never was. I'll take it. I didn't see the Angels fans crying when Cano was ruled out of base line last week vs the Yankees, which was boarderline, since it's never called...and then it suddenly was, could have costed the Yankees game 5.
